The Supreme Court on Monday announced Justice Sonia Sotomayor will undergo shoulder-replacement surgery.
Sotomayor, 63, injured her shoulder when she fell at her home earlier this month.
The court's public information office said in a press release that "tests revealed she suffered a multipart displaced head splitting fracture of her proximal humerus," and that further consultation with specialists indicated surgery was needed. The court said she will undergo reverse total shoulder replacement on Tuesday morning and will curtail activities for the next few weeks while she recuperates.
She will wear a sling for several weeks and will undergo physical therapy for several months, the Supreme Court said. She is expected to recover full mobility and shoulder function.
Which shoulder are they replacing? The left one, or the far-left one?
Just following Jesus’ command:
Matthew 5:
44 But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.
What she is getting I think is indicative of underlying poor health. Normal people don’t fall and break shoulders.
Its cultural appropriation for her to stray from a shaman or a medicine man.
A “reverse total brain replacement” would also seem to be in order for a person with her maladies.
Zactly right.
I would wish that pain on my enemy if they weren’t an American but, no matter what I think of Sotomayor I couln’t wish shoulder surgery or it’s attendant issues on her...
Still, if she retires she can fully focus on her recovery.....
Not to wish her bad, she is going to be in lots of extreme pain for a long time...
Shoulder surgery is a long hard recovery...
She needs to retire so she can fully recover...
And for the record, anyone who promotes themselves as "wise" ipso facto isn't.
I wish her well with that, but it might make it too uncomfortable to continue on the Court.
Many many years ago my BIL dislocated his shoulder in a dune buggy accident, he was young and healthy and was very afraid of doctors.
He was in terrible pain for three or so days before he finally went and it took months and months before he regained full use of it and that was just a dislocation.
Now that’s racism.
The Left side is worn-out from overuse.
Sotomayor, 63, injured her shoulder when she fell at her home earlier this month. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
You mean she fell off the top step of her home in a Washington DC trailer park?
Its her gavel arm, time for her to retire!
Brain replacement surgery would be more appropriate.
I don’t know but wouldn’t be surprised if her diabetes had something to do with it.
I just choked on my coffee! You win this thread!
I wonder who is doing her surgery?
Maybe they can give her what they dug outta McCsin?
